Agent Harnesses in Practice AI agents are advancing quickly, but turning them into dependable business systems requires more than model access. It requires a harness: the specifications, controls, validation layers, tooling, and operating patterns that make agent behavior useful, repeatable, and safe. This New York Tech Week panel brings together practitioners working at the intersection of AI, software delivery, and enterprise operations to discuss how organizations are approaching this new engineering discipline. We’ll break the space into clear categories, examine where current tools fit, and explore practical patterns for moving from prototype to production. The conversation will focus on real-world implementation questions: how teams define agent scope, structure workflows, validate outputs, introduce human oversight, and apply these systems inside complex existing environments. We are inviting engineering leaders, founders, product and platform teams, and anyone trying to understand where agent systems create real value today. This event is a part of #NYTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
